Hero Arts - 90 Minute Scramble

I came up with two cards this afternoon for the Hero Arts 90 minute scramble. Not bad, considering I had a bit of  late start, and the craft room is a DISASTER. We are having water issues with an upstairs bathroom that has leaked through the ceiling of my craft space, so all my organizing last weekend was for nothing, as everything has had to be crammed into one side away from the rather large hole in the ceiling. Positive end to this story - we are having the upstairs bathroom redone. A little sooner than anticipated, but it will be much nicer than it was before.

Back to the scramble - the challenge was to create a card in the colors of your country's flag, photograph it, and upload it to Flickr within 90 minutes.

Here are my two cards:

Side note on the lower card -- Tim Holtz Distress Paints are FANTASTIC. I see so many different applications for using them, other than cards. They go on smoothly, and I love that they are so easy to apply with the dauber tip. I hope they come out with a Peacock Feathers shade!
